Davidoff Winston Churchill Raconteur Petit Panatela Cigar - 1 Single

Date Added: Tuesday 31 December, 2024 by GENEVIEVE

As expected from Davidoff, the construction was excellent and the draw pretty good - I guillotine cut this and it took me c35-40 minutes to smoke it at a very leisurely pace. It held the ash well, departing after about an inch accumulated on the foot. Although the construction, draw and overall aesthetic of the cigar was good, the taste aspect let it down. No real flavour notes to mention, just a reasonably pleasant medium strength tobacco flavour. I've had much more satisfying and complex cigars at this price point so this was disappointing, especially as Davidoff is one of my favourite brands.

Good draw and construction. Flavour was ok, bit ashy for me and for a few pounds more could get a small hoyo or h upmann

I really enjoy this cigar. Good for a short smoke and the quality is excellent. Draws really well.

Funny isn't it.. I always look at cigar reviews here.. and it's good that we have them. But. And it's a big 'but'.. other than poor construction issues, or tight draw.. it's all personal preference. Many people find these cigars flavourless.. I have to say I find them smooth and mild. No acridity.. no bursts of heat.. none of that funny over-fermented fizziness that you get from a bad cigar. Extremely consistent, well made, and delicate cigar. These were one of the first cigars I ever purchased.. and still one of the best

The first five minutes were quite coarse, til it settled down in to mild coffee notes which were almost forgotten in an uninspiring way, I have to say I was expecting more.

Pleasant enough and well made, but very one dimensional. The taste was just fairly strong Tobacco - there doesnt appear to be much age to them. Theres many more interesting Cigars in this size and price range.
